Harm Reduction
Our harm reduction programs provide free syringes, safer injection supplies, naloxone (Narcan), and more, all in a safe, judgment-free setting—because our primary goal is to help you get the tools and supplies you need to stay safe, healthy, and connected to care.
“For more than 30 years, our Lifepoint syringe services program has been a national leader in promoting the health of people who use drugs. We meet everyone with respect, dignity, and the single-minded focus of helping them be safe and healthy, however that looks for them.”
Kristen Grimes, National Program Director of Prevention and Harm Reduction

“Coming to Vivent Health was the first time I felt like I was heard and understood. Nobody judged me. Nobody pressured me to quit. They just welcomed me and asked how they could help.”
Joshua, Lifepoint client
“Because of the non-judgmental care and support we got at Vivent Health, my partner and I are both sober. We were able to be reunited with our kids, and we welcomed a new baby into the family. We couldn’t be more grateful to our friends at Vivent Health. We wouldn’t have thought this life was possible without them.”
Joella, Lifepoint client
